The story is surfacing that Russian security services possibly hacked into the server at the University of East Anglia's Hadley Center shows that the world is not uniform in its march toward global governance. The height of irony would be if the authoritarian government had actually struck a blow for truth and freedom by coordinating the hack, while the hacks in the American press continued their lying propaganda campaign.
